Opis

'Resistance is one of the main causes of emotion. The moment we believe something isn't the way it should be or someone doesn't meet our expectations we struggle to accept the situation because it is out of our control. We get stressed when we can't control a person or a situation. We get frustrated because we "judge" the situation as "bad, unwanted or wrong". To combat this, we need to learn not to "feed" negative thoughts. We can do this by accepting rather than fighting a thought or emotion - accept it and then move forward. Being more aware of your thoughts on a conscious level will give you more control of your emotions by consciously changing them and not letting them spiral out of control.' Beyond the Mind explores meditation and mindfulness as therapy for tragedy and recurring negative thought. The book takes you through the stages of mindfulness therapy and explains the practical uses for everyday life and the theory of meditation as well as the stages of how to achieve it and practice it regularly. There is also discussion of the law of attraction and how using this can ultimately create positive thoughts and a more positive wellbeing. While the focus is quite general, there is also specific mention to the effects caused by the isolation of lockdown and how to use meditation and mindfulness to develop more positive thoughts.
